Frequently Asked Questions

What is digital asset planning?

Digital asset planning is the process of identifying online accounts, files, and identities, and setting out who may access them and how they should be managed. It typically uses documents like wills, trusts, and powers of attorney tailored to Wisconsin law to ensure your instructions are followed.

A will or trust can carry digital asset provisions, but many platforms require separate login access arrangements. Combining documents can provide a clearer path for families and help preserve privacy.

Store login details in a secure password manager or a trusted, encrypted file with restricted access. Update the manager if you change passwords and share access only with trusted individuals.

The executor should be someone you trust to follow your instructions and coordinate with service providers and family members. Discuss roles in advance and document your choices clearly in your estate plan.

Social media and online profiles can be reviewed, memorialized, or managed according to your wishes and the platform’s policies. Include digital asset provisions in your plan to guide family on these matters.

If you change service providers, update your plan and access details to reflect new accounts and terms. Regular reviews help keep your plan accurate.

Yes. Updates can often be made remotely with secure document revisions and updated login instructions. We assist with compliant digital updates aligned to Wisconsin law.

Timeline depends on your asset scope and document readiness, but a typical plan can be completed within a few weeks with your timely input. Regular reviews can be scheduled to keep the plan current.
